Figure Drawing Intensive

Immerse yourself in drawing in an afternoon or full day of drawing with a dynamic and popular teacher who will bring out your best. Using any media, draw from a live model and see the subject and your own work in new ways and with new inspiration.

In July, go super-intense and draw for a full day or two days in a row.

Beginners and seasoned artists alike have enjoyed these intensive workshops.
